Yuvi Alpert, the designer behind the limited-edition men’s accessories line Men in Cities](/men/brands/men-in-cities) gets most of his inspiration from travel. His refined—but seriously road-ready—designs tell the tales (and fill the needs) that emerge from the trips he has taken, from heading to Boston on a train or exploring Cuba with his camera. We are pleased to present some choice shots from his travels.

“This is a Tibetan Monk I came across on a motorcycle trip near Pokhara, Nepal. They have no TV or Internet at the Temple where he lives but he still has love for Kobe. I’m a big Laker Fan so this was a great surprise for me.”
